It is highly unlikely that someone will create a new package,
certainly none of us use Ubuntu anymore and even if we did, Intrepid
is no longer supported officially and that is when we cease our
support as well.

Creating a package isn't too difficult, just need to apt-get source
deluge somewhere to grab the package sources. You can then download
the deluge source tarball off the site and extract it, copy over the
debian folder from the package source into the tarball source. You'll
want to add an entry to debian/changelog which is what defines the
version number, there's a handy tool in the devscripts package for
this called dch.

Once you have updated everything required in the debian folder (I
think control would be the only other file that might need to be
checked over to update dependencies) then you can run apt-get builddep
deluge, followed by dpkg-buildpackage which will create the debs for
you.

Hope that helps!
